I was blown away by the complexity of the 2000 Aglianico del Vulture Titolo, the first vintage produce by a rising star of Southern Italian winemaking: Elena Fucci. The wine shows an ever-changing bouquet that evolves slowly to reveal blackcurrant, licorice, tar, balsam herb and dark mineral. I went back to the wine 24 hours later and the bouquet was just as intact as when I first tasted it. In fact, it was even silkier, finer and smoother. This is wine of pedigree and elegance that serves as an auspice of good fortune for the vintages to follow. Elena Fucci set her bar very high with her first wine, and continued to over-perform after that. This is an inaugural masterpiece that shows no signs of slowing down. It drinks beautiful right now, but will easily hold ten more years.
